We exceeded our financial goals and objectives and feel much progress was made in bringing a higher level of service to our customers, shareholders, and the communities we serve. We are most proud and gratified by the many favorable responses received from our customers regarding the quality of service provided by our staff. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, net income was a record $4.9 million, or $1.20 per share diluted, up 34.8% from fiscal 1997. Return on equity reached 17.11% and return on assets was 1.23%, both returns among the best as compared to all other Ohio publicly-traded thrifts. These results reflect the success of our basic strategy of functioning as a niche lender, providing our customers a wide range of lending products, collateralized by real estate, that may not be available to them at larger banks. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, assets increased by $62 million to $433 million, deposits grew $56 million to $344 million, and stockholders' equity increased $4.9 million to $32 million. Additionally, we originated in excess of $250 million in new loans. In January 1998, Park View Federal Savings Bank opened a full-service branch office in the rapidly growing city of Chardon, Ohio in Geauga County. In less than six months, the office has grown to just over $24 million in deposits and originated an impressive number of loans in the local market area. This opening brings the number of full-service branch office locations to ten. Information on the location of each branch office and their hours of service is provided at the end of this report. In March 1998, PVF Service Corporation, a subsidiary of PVF Capital Corp., entered into an option agreement with Cameratta Properties Limited for the purchase of its 250-acre parcel of land in Solon, Ohio for $5 million. The option agreement provides for the payment of a $500,000 non-refundable deposit that requires the buyer to purchase the property within one year or forfeit the deposit. Completion of the purchase is dependent upon obtaining voter approval for the planned development project from the residents of the city of Solon. The project has the full support of the Solon City Council and will appear on the November 1998 ballot. If the purchase is completed as provided in the contract, an after-tax gain of approximately $2.5 million is expected to be earned in fiscal 1999. 4 We want to assure you that PVF Capital Corp. has addressed the Year 2000 issue. This issue centers on the inability of today's computer hardware and software, if left unaltered, to recognize the Year 2000. A project team has been assembled and a formal plan of action was developed to take all steps possible to prepare for potential Year 2000 problems. We have included Special Shareholder Information on the opposite page that clearly demonstrates the performance of your stock since it became publicly traded. As we continue to expand and grow, we pledge our continued efforts to provide the best personal service to our customers, community, and shareholders. Finally, we invite all shareholders to attend the Annual Meeting of PVF Capital Corp. on Monday, October 19, 1998, at 10:00 a.m., at the Cleveland Marriott East in Beachwood, Ohio. As we continue to grow, we look forward to another successful year of service and dedication to the community, its members, our shareholders, and our customers. Sincerely, /s/ John R. Male John R. Male President 5 SPECIAL SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION The performance of PVF Capital Corp. was recognized by The Cleveland Plain Dealer in its annual published listing of the 100 Top Performing Public Companies in the State of Ohio.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL PVF Capital Corp. ("PVF" or the "Company") owns and operates Park View Federal Savings Bank ("Park View Federal" or the "Bank"), its principal and wholly-owned subsidiary, and PVF Service Corporation, a wholly-owned real estate subsidiary. Park View Federal has ten offices located in Cleveland and surrounding communities, including three recently opened branches in Chardon, Bainbridge, and Macedonia. The Bank's principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public through its branch offices and investing these funds in loans secured by first mortgages on real estate located in its market area, which consists of Portage, Lake, Geauga, Cuyahoga, Summit, Stark, Medina, and Lorain Counties in Ohio. The Bank has concentrated its activities on serving the borrowing needs of local homeowners and builders in its market area by originating both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate single-family mortgage loans, as well as construction loans and commercial real estate and multi-family residential real estate loans. In addition, to a lesser extent, the Bank originates loans secured by second mortgages, including home equity line of credit loans secured by single-family residential properties and loans secured by savings deposits. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders, the level of interest rates, and the availability of funds. Deposit flows and cost of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest, primarily on competing investments, account maturities, and the level of personal income and savings in the market area. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS When used in this Annual Report, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Company's market area, and competition that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 1998, 1997, AND 1996 PVF had total assets of $433.3 million, $373.1 million, and $331.6 million at June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The primary source of the Bank's increase in total assets has been its loan portfolio. Net loans receivable and mortgage-backed securities totaled $373.6 million, $342.6 million, and $297.8 million at June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase of $31.0 million in net loans and mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 1998 resulted primarily from increases in one-to-four family residential loans, commercial real estate loans, and one-to-four family residential construction loans of $13.3 million, $9.6 million, and $6.2 million, respectively. The Bank's current loans-to-one-borrower limitation was approximately $4.0 million at June 30, 1998. In addition, securities totaled $27.8 million, $14.0 million, and $14.1 million at the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase of $31.0 million in net loans and mortgage-backed securities, $13.8 million in securities, and $13.6 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1998 were funded by growth of $55.9 million in deposits. The securities portfolio has been and will continue to be used primarily to meet the regulatory liquidity requirements of the Bank in its deposit taking and lending activities. The Bank has adopted a policy that permits investment only in U.S. government and agency securities or Triple-A-rated securities. The Bank invests primarily in securities having a final maturity of five years or less that qualify as regulatory liquidity, federal funds sold, and deposits at the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Cincinnati. Approximately $25.7 million, or 53.1% of the securities portfolio, has a repricing period of one year or less, and the Bank has no plans to change the short-term nature of its securities portfolio. 6 9 The Bank's deposits totaled $344.2 million, $288.3 million, and $271.0 million at June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati amounted to $46.3 million, $47.4 million, and $27.5 million at June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The opening of a new branch office along with management's decision to aggressively compete with market savings rates resulted in an increase in savings deposits of $55.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998. CAPITAL PVF's stockholders' equity totaled $31.2 million, $26.3 million, and $22.5 million at the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increases were the result of the retention of net earnings. The Bank's primary regulator, The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") has implemented a statutory framework for capital requirements which establishes five categories of capital strength, ranging from "well capitalized" to "critically undercapitalized." An institution's category depends upon its capital level in relation to relevant capital measures, including two risk-based capital measures, a tangible capital measure, and a core/leverage capital measure. At June 30, 1998, the Bank was in compliance with all of the current applicable regulatory capital measurements to meet the definition of a well-capitalized institution, as demonstrated in the following table: Park View Requirement for Federal Percent of Well-Capitalized (in thousands) Capital Assets (1) Institution ---------------------------------------- GAAP capital $ 31,727 7.21% N/A Tangible capital $ 31,727 7.21% N/A Core capital $ 31,727 7.21% 5.00% Tier 1 risk-based capital$ 31,727 10.11% 6.00% Risk-based capital $ 34,324 10.93% 10.00% (1) Tangible and core capital levels are shown as a percentage of total adjusted assets; risk-based capital levels are shown as a percentage of risk-weighted assets. COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDENDS The Company's common stock trades under the symbol "PVFC" on the Nasdaq Small-Cap Market. A 10% stock dividend was issued in August 1995, a three-for-two stock split effected in the form of a dividend was issued in August 1996, a 10% stock dividend was issued in September 1997, and a three-for-two stock split effected in the form of a dividend was issued in August 1998. As adjusted to reflect all stock dividends and all stock splits, the Company had 3,990,808 shares of common stock outstanding and approximately 318 holders of record of the common stock at August 31, 1998. OTS regulations applicable to all Federal Savings Banks such as Park View Federal limit the dividends that may be paid by the Bank to PVF. Any dividends paid may not reduce the Bank's capital below minimum regulatory requirements. The following table sets forth certain information as to the range of the high and low bid prices for the Bank's common stock for the calendar quarters indicated.(1) Fiscal 1998 Fiscal 1997 ------------------------------------- High Bid Low Bid High Bid Low Bid ------------------------------------- Fourth Quarter $ 18.83 $ 15.92 $ 10.99 $ 10.15 Third Quarter 16.00 12.67 10.15 9.09 Second Quarter 13.83 12.67 9.24 8.79 First Quarter 14.33 12.08 8.79 7.27 (1) Quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down, or commission, and may not represent actual transactions. Bid prices have been adjusted to reflect the previously described stock dividends and stock splits. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's liquidity measures its ability to fund loans and meet withdrawals of deposits and other cash outflows in a cost-effective manner. The Company's primary sources of funds for operations are deposits from its primary market area, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities, and proceeds from maturing securities and advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati. While loan and mortgage-backed securities payments and maturing securities are relatively stable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by prevailing interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. FHLB advances may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for deposit outflows or on a long-term basis to support expanded lending and investment activities. The Bank uses its capital resources principally to meet its ongoing commitment to fund maturing certificates of deposit and deposit withdrawals, repay borrowings, fund existing and continuing loan commitments, maintain its liquidity, and meet operating expenses. At June 30, 1998, the Bank had commitments to originate loans totaling $27.6 million and had $44.6 million of undisbursed loans in process. Scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit during the twelve months following June 30, 1998 totaled $211.6 million. Management believes that a significant portion of the amounts maturing during fiscal 1999 will be 7 10 reinvested with the Bank because they are retail deposits, however, no assurances can be made that this will occur. Park View Federal is required by current OTS regulations to maintain specified liquid assets of at least 4% of its net withdrawable accounts plus short-term borrowings. Such investments serve as a source of liquid funds which the Bank may use to meet deposit withdrawals and other short-term needs. The Bank's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which are short-term, highly-liquid investments with original maturities equal to or less than three months that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. The levels of such assets are dependent upon the Bank's operating, financing, and investment activities at any given time. Management believes that the liquidity levels maintained are more than adequate to meet potential deposit outflows, repay maturing FHLB advances, fund new loan demand, and cover normal operations. Park View Federal's daily liquidity ratio at June 30, 1998 was 13.4%, and its short-term liquidity ratio was significantly above regulatory requirements. ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT The Company's asset and liability committee ("ALCO"), which includes senior management representatives, monitors and considers methods of managing the rate sensitivity and repricing characteristics of the balance sheet components consistent with maintaining acceptable levels of changes in net portfolio value ("NPV") and net interest income. Park View Federal's asset and liability management program is designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes in interest rates on NPV and net interest income. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on a quarterly basis by the Board of Directors and the ALCO. Exposure to interest rate risk is measured with the use of interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the Company's change in NPV in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates, while interest rate sensitivity gap analysis is used to determine the repricing characteristics of the Bank's assets and liabilities. If estimated changes to NPV and net interest income are not within the limits established by the Board, the Board may direct management to adjust its asset and liability mix to bring interest rate risk within Board-approved limits. In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations, the Company has developed strategies to manage its liquidity, shorten its effective maturity, and increase the interest rate sensitivity of its asset base. Management has sought to decrease the average maturity of its assets by emphasizing the origination of adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans and adjustable-rate mortgage loans for the acquisition, development, and construction of residential and commercial real estate, all of which are retained by the Bank for its portfolio. In addition, all long-term, fixed-rate mortgages are underwritten according to guidelines of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") and the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and are either swapped with the FHLMC and the FNMA in exchange for mortgage-backed securities secured by such loans which are then sold in the market or sold directly for cash in the secondary market. Interest rate sensitivity analysis is used to measure the Company's interest rate risk by computing estimated changes in NPV of its cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. NPV represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of an immediate and sustained 1 and 2 percent increase or decrease in market interest rates. The Bank's Board of Directors has adopted an interest rate PROFILE OF INTEREST SENSITIVE ASSETS (3.0%) Fixed-rate other mortgage loans (5.8%) Fixed-rate single-family mortgage loans (36.1%) Adjustable-rate other mortgage loans (42.1%) Adjustable-rate single-family mortgage loans (4.8%) Overnight Fed Funds (0.7%) Adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities (6.6%) Investment securities 60 months or less (0.9%) Consumer loans 8 11 PROFILE OF INTEREST SENSITIVE LIABILITIES (54.9%) CD's 12 months or less (3.5%) CD's 25 to 36 months (13.6%) CD's 13 to 24 months (1.0%) CD's over 36 months (0.3%) Notes Payable 12 months or less (8.1%) FHLB Advances over 36 months (1.3%) FHLB Advances 13 to 36 months (2.6%) FHLB Advances 12 months or less (8.3%) Passbook accounts (6.4%) Transaction accounts risk policy which establishes maximum decreases in the NPV of 5% and 10% in the event of an immediate and sustained 1 and 2 percent increase or decrease in market interest rates. The following table presents the Bank's projected change in NPV for the various rate shock levels at June 30, 1998. All market risk sensitive instruments presented in this table are held to maturity or available for sale. The Bank has no trading securities. (in thousands) Change in Market Value of Dollar Percentage Interest Rates Portfolio Equity Change Change -------------- ---------------- ------ ------ +200 $ 44,137 $ (624) (2)% +100 44,997 186 0 0 44,811 -100 44,146 (665) (1) -200 43,190 (1,621) (4) The above table indicates that at June 30, 1998, in the event of either an immediate and sustained increase or decrease in prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would not be materially impacted, but would be expected to decrease slightly. This is the case, because of the current flatness of the yield curve along with the borrowers' and/or lenders' ability to prepay or extend the terms of loans, investments, deposits, and borrowings. The Bank carefully monitors the maturity and repricing of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities to minimize the effect of changing interest rates on its NPV. At June 30, 1998, the Bank's estimated changes in NPV were within the targets established by the Board of Directors. NPV is calculated by the OTS using information provided by the Bank. The calculation is based on the net present value of discounted cash flows utilizing market prepayment assumptions and market rates of interest provided by Bloomberg quotations and surveys performed during the quarter ended June 30, 1998, with adjustments made to reflect the shift in the Treasury yield curve between the survey date and the quarter-end date. Computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments, and deposit decay, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the Bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the computation of NPV. Actual values may differ from those projections set forth in the table, should market conditions vary from assumptions used in the preparation of the table. Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate loans, which represent the Bank's primary loan product, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. In addition, the proportion of adjustable-rate loans in the Bank's portfolio could decrease in future periods if market interest rates remain at or decrease below current levels due to refinance activity. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. In addition, the Bank uses interest rate sensitivity gap analysis to monitor the relationship between the maturity and repricing of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing 9 12 within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-rate-sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest-rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate-sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap would result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would result in an increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would negatively affect net interest income. Management's goal is to maintain a reasonable balance between exposure to interest rate fluctuations and earnings. The following table summarizes the Company's interest rate sensitivity gap analysis at June 30, 1998.

(4.0)% (5.0)% 9.1% 8.5% RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL PVF Capital Corp.'s net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 was $4.9 million, or $1.25 basic earnings per share and $1.20 diluted earnings per share, as compared to $3.6 million, or $0.95 basic earnings per share and $0.89 diluted earnings per share for fiscal 1997, and $3.8 million, or $0.99 basic earnings per share and $0.93 diluted earnings per share for fiscal 1996. All per share amounts have been adjusted for stock dividends and stock splits. Net income for the current year increased by $1.3 million from the prior fiscal year and exceeded net income for fiscal 1996 by $1.1 million. In the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Bank recorded a one-time special assessment to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") that required SAIF-insured savings institutions to pay 65.7 cents for every $100 of deposits. This assessment was charged against earnings in fiscal 1997 and had an after-tax impact of $1.1 million. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income amounted to $14.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, as compared to $14.4 million and $12.1 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The increase in net interest income of $0.4 million and $2.3 million from the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 to 1998 and from the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 to 1997, respectively, is due to changes in interest rates and changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Tables 1 and 2 provide information as to change in the Bank's net interest income. Table 1 sets forth certain information relating to the Bank's average interest-earning assets (loans and investments) and interest-bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowings) and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods and at the dates indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing interest income or interest expense by the average daily balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. During the periods indicated, non-accrual loans are included in the net loan category. This table also presents information for the periods indicated and at June 30, 1998 with respect to the difference between the weighted-average yield earned on interest-earning assets and weighted-average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or "interest rate spread," which savings institutions have traditionally used as an indicator of profitability. Another indicator of an institution's net interest income is its "net yield on interest-earning assets," which is its net interest income divided by the average balance of net interest-earning assets. Net interest income is affected by the interest rate spread and by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. 10 13 Table 1 AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST AND AVERAGE YIELDS AND RATES FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 1997 1996 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Average Yield/ Average Yield/ Average Yield/ (in thousands) Balance Interest Cost Balance Interest Cost Balance Interest Cost - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest-earning assets: Loans................................... $361,308 $ 32,500 9.00% $317,453 $ 29,419 9.27% $272,768 $ 25,572 9.38% Mortgage-backed securities.............. 2,439 155 6.36 3,832 285 7.44 3,961 269 6.79 Securities and other interest-earning assets 27,918 1,710 6.13 19,706 1,259 6.39 32,732 1,920 5.87 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Total interest-earning assets...... 391,665 34,365 8.77 340,991 30,963 9.08 309,461 27,761 8.97 -------- -------- -------- Non-interest-earning assets............. 9,291 9,773 7,775 -------- -------- -------- Total assets....................... $400,956 $350,764 $317,236 ======== ======== ======== Interest-bearing liabilities: Deposits................................ $321,039 $ 17,062 5.31 $272,341 $ 13,957 5.12 $270,975 $ 14,889 5.49 FHLB advances........................... 40,240 2,351 5.84 41,083 2,367 5.76 10,638 546 5.13 -------- -------- ---- -------- -------- ---- -------- -------- ---- Notes payable........................... 1,604 145 9.04 2,510 237 9.44 2,746 268 9.80 Total interest-bearing liabilities. 362,883 19,558 5.39 315,934 16,561 5.24 284,359 15,703 5.52 -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- Non-interest-bearing liabilities........ 9,267 10,825 12,337 -------- -------- -------- Total liabilities ................. 372,150 326,759 296,696 Stockholders' equity...................... 28,806 24,005 20,540 -------- -------- -------- Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $400,956 $350,764 $317,236 Net interest income....................... $ 14,807 $ 14,402 $ 12,058 ======== ======== ======== Interest rate spread...................... 3.38% 3.84% 3.45% ==== ==== ==== Net yield on interest-earning assets...... 3.78% 4.22% 3.90% ==== ==== ==== Ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities. 107.93% 107.93% 108.83% ====== ====== ====== Table 2 illustrates the extent to which changes in interest rates and shifts in the volume of interest-related assets and liabilities have affected the Bank's interest income and expense during the years indicated. The table shows the changes by major component, distinguishing between changes relating to volume (changes in average volume multiplied by average old rate), changes relating to rate (changes in average rate multiplied by average old volume), and changes relating to rate and volume (changes in average rate multiplied by changes in average volume). As is evidenced by these tables, interest rate changes unfavorably affected the Bank's net interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, while favorably affecting the Bank's net interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. Due to the long-term nature of the Bank's loan portfolio and short-term nature of its deposit portfolio, along with decreasing interest rates and a relatively flat yield curve during much of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, the Bank experienced a decrease of 46 basis points in its interest rate spread to 3.38% for fiscal 1998 from 3.84% for fiscal 1997, while during fiscal 1997 its interest rate spread increased 39 basis points from 3.45% for fiscal 1996. These changes in average interest rate spread resulted in a decrease in net interest income for the year ended June 30, 1998 of $1.5 million due to interest rate changes and an increase of $845,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. Net interest income was favorably affected by volume changes during the two years ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. Accordingly, net interest income grew by $2.1 million and $1.8 million due to volume changes for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Changes attributable to both rate and volume impacted net interest income negatively during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997. 11 14 The rate/volume analysis illustrates the effect that volatile interest rate environments can have on a financial institution. Increasing interest rates or a flattening yield curve will both have a negative effect on net interest income, while decreasing interest rates or a steepening yield curve will both have a positive effect on net interest income.

Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to bring the total allowances for loan losses to a level considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses, based on prior loss experience, volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, industry standards, and past due loans in the Bank's loan portfolio. The Bank's policies require the review of assets on a regular basis, and the Bank appropriately classifies loans as well as other assets if warranted. The Bank establishes specific provisions for loan losses when a loan is deemed to be uncollectible in an amount equal to the net book value of the loan or to any portion of the loan deemed uncollectible. A loan that is classified as either substandard or doubtful is assigned an allowance based upon the specific circumstances on a loan-by-loan basis after consideration of the underlying collateral and other pertinent economic and market conditions. In addition, the Bank maintains unallocated allowances based upon the establishment of a risk category for each type of loan in the Bank's portfolio. The Company uses a systematic approach in determining the adequacy of its loan loss allowance and the necessary provision for loan losses, whereby the loan portfolio is reviewed generally and delinquent loan accounts are analyzed individually, on a monthly basis. Consideration is given primarily to the types of loans in the portfolio and the overall risk inherent in the portfolio, as well as, with respect to individual loans, account status, payment history, ability to repay and probability of repayment, and loan-to-value percentages. After reviewing current economic conditions, changes in delinquency status, and actual loan losses incurred by the Company, management establishes an appropriate reserve percentage applicable to each category of loans, and a provision for loan losses is recorded when necessary to bring the allowance to a level consistent with this analysis. Management believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with respect to the allowance for loan losses, recognizing that future adjustments may be necessary depending upon a change in economic conditions. During 1998, the Company experienced growth in the loan portfolio of $28.5 million, or 8.3%, while 12 15 maintaining the composition of the loan portfolio. In addition, the level of impaired loans decreased from $4.1 million to $3.3 million, while allowance related to impaired loans increased from $69,000 to $196,000. The decrease in the level of impaired loans caused the percentage of impaired loans to allowance for loan losses to increase from 65% to 82%. Net charge-offs increased from $77,000 in 1997 to $234,000 in 1998. Therefore, taking into consideration the growth of the portfolio, the lower level of impaired loans, as well as the higher level of net charge-offs and the overall performance of the portfolio, the Company provided $246,000 of additional provision to maintain the allowance at a level deemed appropriate of $2.7 million. During 1997, the Company experienced growth in the loan portfolio of $52.6 million, or 18.2%, while maintaining the composition of the loan portfolio. Although the level of impaired loans increased from $2.4 million to $4.1 million, the allowance related to impaired loans decreased from $394,000 to $69,000 due to the adequate underlying value of impaired loans. Therefore, despite the fact that the level of impaired loans increased, causing the percentage of impaired loans to allowance for loan losses to decrease from 109% to 65%, this did not result in a need to increase the allowance significantly. Net charge-offs also decreased from $254,000 in 1996 to $77,000 in 1997. Therefore, taking into consideration the growth of the portfolio, as well as the low level of net charge-offs and the overall performance of the portfolio, the Company provided $187,000 of additional provision to maintain the allowance at a level deemed appropriate of $2.7 million. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income amounted to $1.6 million, $1.3 million, and $1.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996 respectively. The fluctuations in non-interest income are due primarily to fluctuations in income derived from mortgage banking activities and fee income on deposit accounts. Income attributable to mortgage banking activities consists of loan servicing income, gains and losses on the sale of loans and mortgage-backed securities, and market valuation provisions and recoveries. Income from mortgage banking activities amounted to $869,000, $663,000, and $925,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in income from mortgage banking activities of $206,000 from the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 to 1998 is primarily due to an increase in net profit realized on the sale of loans and mortgage-backed securities. Other non-interest income amounted to $727,000, $673,000, and $822,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Changes in other non-interest income are the result of service and other miscellaneous fee income, income realized on the sale of assets and investments, and the disposal of real estate owned properties. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense amounted to $8.9 million, $10.0 million, and $8.0 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The principal component of non-interest expense is compensation and related benefits which amounted to $4.5 million, $4.4 million, and $4.1 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in compensation for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 is due primarily to growth in the staff, the opening of a new branch in fiscal 1998, employee 401K benefits, a compensation incentive plan for both management and loan originators, and inflationary salary and wage adjustments to employees. Office occupancy totaled $1.6 million, $1.6 million, and $1.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increased occupancy expense is attributable to maintenance and repairs to office buildings, and costs attributable to opening and operating additional branch offices. Other non-interest expense totaled $2.7 million, $4.0 million, and $2.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in other non-interest expense of $1.6 million from the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 to 1997 is attributable to the previously mentioned SAIF assessment. Changes in other non-interest expense are the result of advertising, professional and legal services, regulatory and insurance expenses, and franchise tax expense. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Bank's federal income tax expense was $2.4 million, $1.9 million, and $1.6 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Due to the availability of tax credits for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 and statutory bad debt deductions for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, and other miscellaneous deductions, the Bank's effective federal income tax rate was below the expected tax rate of 35% with an effective rate of 33%, 34%, and 30% for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. YEAR 2000 Park View Federal realizes the challenges of the Year 2000 issue. In compliance with regulatory guidelines, a project team was assembled to review the effects the century 13 16 change has on current systems and to assess the potential risks that it presents. A formal plan of action was developed to address and correct this issue and has been approved by the Bank's Board of Directors with the full support of senior management. An inventory of internal systems, both computer and non-computer related, was completed in this process. Relationships with third-party vendors were also analyzed. Potential weaknesses were then documented and prioritized as to their effect on critical business functions. Our major software supplier has dedicated tremendous resources to help in addressing this issue. They recently released the remediated version of the system that has undergone extensive beta testing. All user departments are involved in the testing process in-house to assure validation of the changes. Our software supplier has advised us that this testing is expected to reveal any potential problems well in advance of the impending deadline. At the same time, testing will take place of those external relationships with which the Bank exchanges information. Additional testing is also expected to take place on all other mission-critical information systems. It is believed that this readiness will increase the likelihood of uninterrupted operation of Bank functions. In addressing this issue, the Bank has used its current internal staffing with little reliance on outside resources. Major vendors have provided remediated software at no expense to the Bank. No major system had to be replaced and none is expected to be replaced in the coming years. As a result, expenses were approximately $5,000 for fiscal year 1997 with expenditures for fiscal year 1998 estimated at $20,000. These expenditures are in the areas of customer awareness and additional software tools for testing. Rapid and accurate data processing is essential to Company operations. If testing reveals that any system critical to continued business operation should fail, all internal and external resources available will be directed toward correcting these systems. System delays, mistakes, or failures could have an adverse impact on the Company. We are currently under contract with an external consulting service should a system failure occur. End-user contingencies are also being developed. It is expected that these plans will be in place during the fourth quarter of 1998. IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES The consolidated financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Bank are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Bank's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates. For further information regarding the effect of interest rate fluctuations on the Bank, see "Asset/Liability Management." EFFECT OF NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 requires public business enterprises to additionally report items that affect comprehensive income but not net income. Examples of these items relevant to the Company include unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale. At this time, the Company does not have other comprehensive income to be reported. In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS No. 131 requires public business enterprises to report certain information about operating segments. Also required is certain information about products and services, geographic areas in which an enterprise operates, and any major customers. SFAS No. 131 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1997. Management does not expect the implementation of SFAS No. 131 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement establishes comprehensive accounting and reporting requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. This statement requires entities to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities, with the instruments measured at fair value. The accounting for gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the derivative instrument depends on the use of the derivative and the type of risk being hedged. This statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Earlier adoption, however, is permitted. At the present time, the Bank has not fully analyzed the effect or timing of the adoption of SFAS No. 133 on the Bank's consolidated financial statements. 14 17 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT The Board of Directors PVF Capital Corp. and Subsidiaries Cleveland, Ohio: We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of PVF Capital Corp. and subsidiaries (Company) as of June 30, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 1998.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996 (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS The accounting and reporting policies of PVF Capital Corp. and its subsidiaries (Company) conform to generally accepted accounting principles and general industry practice. The Company's principal subsidiary, Park View Federal Savings Bank (Bank), is principally engaged in the business of offering savings deposits through the issuance of savings accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit and lending funds primarily for the purchase, construction, and improvement of real estate in Cuyahoga, Summit, Geauga, Lake and eastern Lorain Counties, Ohio. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured under the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. The following is a description of the significant policies which the Company follows in preparing and presenting its consolidated financial statements. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PVF Capital Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Park View Federal Savings Bank and PVF Service Corporation. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Since the Bank's loans are primarily collateral dependent, measurement of impairment is based on the fair value of the collateral. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is periodically evaluated by the Bank based upon the overall portfolio composition and general market conditions. While management uses the best information available to make these evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions change substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. Future adjustments to the allowance may also be required by regulatory examiners based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually 90 days or more past due is charged off, or an allowance is established. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to all interest previously accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received until the loan is determined to be performing in accordance with the applicable loan terms in which case the loan is returned to accrual status. MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITIES Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value, determined on a net aggregate basis. 21 24 PVF CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements The Company retains servicing on loans that are sold. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122, Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights. Effective January 1, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, which supersedes SFAS No. 122 and provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. As a result of the adoption, the Company recognizes an asset for mortgage servicing rights based on an allocation of total loan cost using relative fair values, or a liability for mortgage servicing rights based on fair value, if the benefits of servicing are not expected to adequately compensate the Company. The cost of mortgage servicing rights is amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment of mortgage servicing rights is assessed based on the fair value of those rights. Fair values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on current market interest rates and prepayment assumptions. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified based on predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans such as interest rates and scheduled maturity. The amount of impairment recognized is the amount by which the capitalized mortgage servicing rights exceed their fair value. The Company monitors prepayments, and in the event that actual prepayments exceed original estimates, amortization is adjusted accordingly. INVESTMENT AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES The Company classifies all securities as held to maturity or available for sale. Securities held to maturity are limited to debt securities that the holder has the positive intent and the ability to hold to maturity; these securities are reported at amortized cost. Securities available for sale consist of all other securities; these securities are reported at fair value, and unrealized gains and losses are not reflected in earnings but are reflected as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of tax. Investment and mortgage-backed securities that could be sold in the future because of changes in interest rates or other factors are not be classified as held to maturity. Gains or losses on the sales of all securities are recognized at the date of sale (trade date). OFFICE PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method at rates expected to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives or, with respect to leasehold improvements, the term of the lease, if shorter. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Company files a consolidated tax return with its wholly owned subsidiaries and provides deferred federal income taxes in recognition of temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled, and the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. (Continued) 22 25 PVF CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements LOAN ORIGINATION AND COMMITMENT FEES The Bank defers loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs and amortizes the net amount over the lives of the related loans as a yield adjustment if the loans are held for investment, or recognizes the net fees as mortgage banking income when the loans are sold. REAL ESTATE IN DEVELOPMENT Real estate in development is carried at the lower of cost, including capitalized holding costs, or fair value less estimated selling costs. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and amounts due from depository institutions, interest bearing deposits, and federal funds sold with original maturities of less than three months to be cash equivalents. EARNINGS PER SHARE SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," was adopted for 1998 with all prior-period earnings per share data restated. The statement requires dual presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The assumed exercise of stock options is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The per share data for 1998, 1997, and 1996 are adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock issuance declared July 1996; and the 10 percent stock dividend declared July 1997 and the three-for-two stock issuance declared July, 1998. RECLASSIFICATION Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation.

The $40,000,000 repurchase line matures in September 1998. The Bank has chosen to take daily advances from this line, with the interest rate set daily. The $20,000,000 cash management line matures in December 1998. Serving as collateral for such advances, the Bank has pledged mortgage loans with unpaid principal balances aggregating approximately $69,486,683 and $71,108,136 at June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. In addition, stock in the FHLB is pledged for such advances. The Bank has the capacity to borrow up to 25 percent of its assets, upon approval of the FHLB. At June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Bank had the capacity to borrow an additional $62,000,000 and $46,000,000, respectively, in FHLB advances.

The note was paid in full on October 2, 1997. On August 16, 1996, PVF Service Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, secured a promissory note from another federally insured institution at a variable interest rate that adjusts to prime plus 1 percent without notice on the effective date of each change in the lender's prime rate. (Continued) 29 32 PVF CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (10) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES AND RETAINED EARNINGS The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect provisions for federal income taxes differing from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax statutory rate to income before federal income taxes. These differences are reconciled as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ------------------- ------------------- -------------------- Percent Percent Percent of of of Pretax Pretax Pretax Amount Income Amount Income Amount Income ------ -------- ------- -------- ------ -------- Computed expected tax $ 2,557,541 35.0% 1,942,671 35.0 % 1,889,836 35.0% Decrease in tax resulting from Benefit of graduated rates (73,073) (1.0) (55,505) (1.0) (53,995) (1.0) Tax credits (287,788) (3.9) - - - - Other, net 182,675 2.5 16,483 (0.3) (222,466) (4.1) -------------- ----- ----------- ----- --------- ----- $ 2,379,355 32.6% 1,903,649 34.3% 1,613,375 29.9% ============== ==== =========== ==== ========= ==== The net tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at June 30, 1998 and 1997, are: 1998 1997 ---- ---- Deferred tax assets Loan loss and other reserves $ 883,039 883,466 Capital loss carryforward 102,374 - Other 162,707 66,170 ---------- -------- Total gross deferred tax assets 1,148,120 949,636 Less valuation allowance (102,374) - ---------- ------- Net deferred tax assets 1,045,746 949,636 --------- ------- Deferred tax liabilities Deferred loan fees 262,929 218,165 FHLB stock dividend 517,587 442,226 Unrealized gains on loan sales, net - 3,140 Originated mortgage servicing asset 206,094 153,423 Bad debt reserves over base year reserves - 55,433 Other 144,150 115,033 ------------- ------- Total gross deferred tax liabilities 1,130,760 987,420 ------------- ------- Net deferred tax (liability) $ (85,014) (37,784) ============= ======== A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax asset if it is more likely than not that the related tax benefits will not be realized. In management's opinion, it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will be realized; consequently, no valuation allowance has been established as of June 30, 1998 or 1997, other than as noted above for the capital loss carryforward. Retained earnings at June 30, 1998 includes approximately $4,516,000 for which no provision for federal income tax has been made. This amount represents allocations of income during years prior to 1988 to bad debt deductions for tax purposes only. These qualifying and nonqualifying base year reserves and supplemental reserves will be recaptured into income in the event of certain distributions and redemptions. Such recapture would create income for tax purposes only, which would be subject to the then current (Continued) 30 33 PVF CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements corporate income tax rate. Recapture would not occur upon the reorganization, merger, or acquisition of the Bank, nor if the Bank is merged or liquidated tax-free into a bank or undergoes a charter change. If the Bank fails to qualify as a bank or merges into a nonbank entity, these reserves will be recaptured into income. The favorable reserve method previously afforded to thrifts was repealed for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995. Large thrifts must switch to the specific charge-off method of section 166, while small thrifts, such as the Bank, must switch to the reserve method of section 585 (the method used by small commercial banks). In general, a thrift is required to recapture the amount of its qualifying and nonqualifying reserves in excess of its qualifying and nonqualifying base year reserves. There is an exception to the general recapture provision for small thrifts. A small thrift is required to recapture the portion of its reserves that exceeds the greater of (1) the experience method reserve computed as if the thrift had always been a small bank, or (2) the lesser of the qualifying and nonqualifying base year reserves or the contracted base year reserves. The Bank has no such excess reserves to recapture. (11) LEASES Future minimum payments under noncancelable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more consisted of the following at June 30, 1998: Year Ending June 30, -------------------- 1999 $ 332,798 2000 249,014 2001 242,645 2002 242,645 Thereafter 316,613 ------------- Total minimum lease payments $ 1,383,715 ============= During the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, rental expense is as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Net rental expense $ 435,097 374,420 331,941 =========== ======= ======= (12) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into commitments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. Commitments to extend credit involve elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the commitment is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Interest rate risk on commitments to extend credit results from the possibility that interest rates may have moved unfavorably from the position of the Bank since the time the commitment was made. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates of 60 to 120 days or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. (Continued) 31 34 PVF CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the applicant. Collateral held is generally residential and commercial real estate. The Bank's lending is concentrated in Northeastern Ohio, and as a result, the economic conditions and market for real estate in Northeastern Ohio could have a significant impact on the Bank. At June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Bank had the following commitments: 1998 1997 ---- ---- Commitments to sell mortgage loans in the secondary market $ 3,407,600 773,000 Commitments to fund variable mortgage loans 21,871,601 29,098,000 Commitments to fund fixed mortgage loans 5,736,100 2,103,000 There are pending against the Company various lawsuits and claims which arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, any liabilities that may result from pending lawsuits and claims will not materially affect the financial position of the Company. (13) REGULATORY CAPITAL Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations require savings institutions to maintain certain minimum levels of regulatory capital. An institution that fails to comply with its regulatory capital requirements must obtain OTS approval of a capital plan and can be subject to a capital directive and certain restrictions on its operations. At June 30, 1998, the minimum regulatory capital regulations require institutions to have tangible capital equal to 1.5 percent of adjusted total assets, a 3 percent leverage capital ratio, and an 8 percent risk-based capital ratio. At June 30, 1998, the Bank exceeded all of the aforementioned regulatory capital requirements. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA) was signed into law on December 19, 1991. Regulations implementing the prompt corrective action provisions of FDICIA became effective on December 19, 1992. The prompt corrective action regulations define specific capital categories based on an institution's capital ratios. The capital categories, in declining order, are "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and "critically undercapitalized." To be considered "well capitalized," an institution must generally have a leverage ratio of at least 5 percent, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6 percent, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10 percent. As of June 30, 1998, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Bank as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. (Continued) 32 35 PVF CAPITAL CORP.

Under the 1992 plan, 381,830 options were originally granted, which are exercisable for a ten-year period and can be exercised at any time. In 1996, 32,100 options were granted and in 1997 32,550 were granted which are exercisable for a ten-year period, with 20 percent of the options vesting each year. Options were granted at fair market value and, accordingly, no charges were reflected in the compensation and benefits expense due to the granting of stock options. The excess of the option price over the par value of the shares purchased through the exercise of stock options is credited to additional capital: 1998 1997 1996 ------------------ ------------------ ------------------- Average Average Average Option Option Option (Shares in 000's) Shares Price Shares Price Shares Price ------ ------- ------ ------- ------ ------- Outstanding beginning of year 399,143 $ 2.84 363,833 $ 2.23 375,062 $ 2.23 Exercised (191,412) 2.25 - 2.23 (11,229) 2.23 Expired (1,980) 9.09 - - - - Granted 32,550 13.16 35,310 9.09 - - Outstanding end of year 238,301 4.67 399,143 2.84 363,833 2.23 Exercisable end of year 192,560 4.67 370,895 2.84 291,066 2.23 As of June 30, 1998, options outstanding have exercise prices between $2.23 and $13.17 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 5.2 years.

However, considerable judgment is necessarily required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Bank could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Securities and mortgage-backed securities. Estimated fair value for securities and mortgage-backed securities is based on quoted market prices. Loans receivable held for investment and held for sale. For loans receivable held for sale, fair value is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. For performing loans receivable held for investment, fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusted for prepayment estimates using discount rates based on secondary market sources adjusted to reflect differences in servicing and credit costs. For other loans, cash flows and maturities are estimated based on contractual interest rates and historical experience and are discounted using secondary market rates adjusted for differences in servicing and credit costs. Fair value for significant nonperforming loans is based on recent external appraisals. If appraisals are not available, estimated cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the estimated cash flows. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows, and discount rates are judgmentally determined using available market information and specific borrower information. (Continued) 36 39 PVF CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. This item is valued at cost, which represents redemption value and approximate fair value. Demand deposits and time deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using discounted cash flows and rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. The fair value of the Bank's FHLB debt is estimated based on the current rates offered to the Bank for debt of the same remaining maturities. Notes payable. The carrying value of the Company's fixed rate note payable is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. For the variable rate note payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Off-balance sheet instruments. The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties' credit standing. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of undisbursed lines of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The carrying amount and fair value of off-balance sheet instruments is not significant as of June 30, 1998 and 1997. (Continued) 37 40 PVF CAPITAL CORP.
